Linda Benner


Mahoning Township Supervisor Linda Benner died in an automobile accident late last week.  I met her through politics--she was the Vice President of the Lehighton Area Democratic Club.  I am a co-secretary of that organization. 

She was intelligent, and, I believe, a good supervisor, putting the interests of the people of Mahoning Township before any personal ideology.  She also had an amazing sense of humor and a wit that might be described as “barbed.”

I was going to say she was a good political friend when I realized I could drop the word political.  I will miss her.
